    I am unable to export!!

     

    I get an error meesage saying "Unable to Export: Watermarking failed." 
    I never ever use the watermarking feature. It is not even enabled. 

    What the hell is going on?? 

     

    I am at a complete standstill, unable to do my job becuase of this damn bug and your insistance in auto-updating!

    How do I go back to the opther version so I can get my work done???!

      Ich kann zur Zeit keine Fotos aus Lightroom exportieren. Ich bekomme immer die Meldung " Export nicht möglich, Wasserzeichemarkierung fehlgeschlagen" Ich nutze keine Wasserzeichen.

      Ich arbeite mit der aktuellen Version 12.0

      Yes, just delete your watermark(s) in the preferences like Sameer instructs, close LC, restart it, try exporting again...worked for me!

      One work around I found was to edit my images, save their metadata, import them into Photoshop's ACR and export from there. I will try the 0% watermark workaround as well

      This did not have any affect on the problem. No watermark is being applied to render this error

      Create a new EMPTY Watersign and use it... it will work then.

       

      The problem will be solved in the next update
